Purpose
The group's official website states that their purpose is to prepare the way for the coming of the English avatar, who is variously identified as The Hooded Man, Woden, HelgiH and Kalki.
"Woden's Folk was set up to prepare the way for the coming of The Hooded Man who is the Crowned and Conquering Son who will incarnate when the Hanged God is swallowed by the Wolf. This astronomical event will take place at the Winter Sunwend of Year 12 : Age of Ing (2012)."
Woden's Folk is a unique Wodenist Movement that rejects the old archetype of the Hanged God in favour of The Avenging Son, seeing this as the archetypal god-image for a new world-age which it calls the Age of Ing or Age of the Son ("Ing" means "son of"). It refers to this figure as Widar the Avenger, the Woodland Warrior, and connects him with The Hooded Man in the Robin of Sherwood television series.
In addition, the group opposes England's multiracial society.
